A regra de 2 minutos para The First Berserker: Khazan
Do you remember the moment that Sekiro forced you to start playing by its rules? For me, I was trundling through the game like I was playing Dark Souls when I hit the Lady Butterfly boss, and suddenly there was pelo room for doubt: if I didn't properly learn these new combat mechanics, I wasn't going any further.
The biggest shame with Khazan is that the missions between each boss feel kind of samey—about two thirds in, I found myself wishing I could just jump to the next boss instead of trekking through yet another mission to get there. I definitely appreciate Khazan not perpetuating the genre's worst tendencies; putting hidden dogs around every corner and enemies who constantly push you off ledges—cough cough Lords of the Fallen.
Isso nãeste foi reflexo único Destes aumentos DE minhas habilidades ou Destes melhores equipamentos do protagonista, porém sim do jogo realmente ter ficado menos desafiador (ou mais justo) desse ponto em diante.
But more than perhaps any other soulslike I've played, Khazan successfully adds its own meaningful twists to these timeworn mechanics, while providing a lineup of fantastically designed bosses who make you dance like a monkey as you learn them.
Its combat follows a similar resource model, too, as you attack and deflect to accumulate Spirit; points you then use to perform weapon skills. Where Khazan really distinguishes itself is with its strict stamina system.
A clara inspiraçãeste de modo a isso foi Nioh, de que identicamente conjuntamente utiliza 1 sistema bem semelhante, mas isso tira 1 pouco do charme do um Souls e a graça por explorar um mundo interconectado e achar caminhos natural escondidos entre as áreas.
Enquanto este personagem parece aceitar seu destino ingrato, espíritos de guerreiros mortos veem em seu corpo o meio ideal de modo a cumprir seus próprios objetivos.
Enquanto é normal de que jogos do finesse soulslike tenham “muros” para testar a habilidade Destes jogadores, demorou um Porreiro tempo até de que outro inimigo exigisse tanto quanto este terceiro chefe do game.
It's also what I love most about The First Berserker: Khazan. Like many soulslikes in recent years, Khazan apes quite a few of Sekiro's more-than-familiar combat mechanics—whether deflecting to build a gauge and stagger a boss, or avoiding unblockable attacks that flash red.
A história do game tem uma premissa natural interessante, e aos poucos a trama vai desenrolando e nos revelando porque Khazan foi acusado por traição e quem realmente foi o Bastante vilão dessa história sangrenta.
Unlike Black Myth: Wukong, Khazan doesn't feel like a game you can brute force. But for those who are willing to engage, it has some of the best designed bosses I've seen in a soulslike, and rewards you for smart play.
" you ask. Well, you can only earn so many skill points through each boss, while Lacrima is just for buffing stats, but it's nice to successfully deflect a tough boss combo for the first time and get a little message saying "Skill point obtained"—it made me feel far more content taking my time to learn each boss.
It's more that having been spoiled by all the accoutrements of the modern soulslike—elaborate NPC quests, secrets, exploration—Khazan and its no frills linear structure can feel basic at times.
3 hours with Elden Ring Nightreign helped me accept it's not the co-op FromSoft game I asked for, but damn fun in its The First Berserker: Khazan own right
